What’s Buzzing in WordPress 💖

Make Sure you… check if your website has duplicate meta robots as a result of the new Robots API feature introduced in WordPress 5.7 version. You can check, control, and remove it using this code or with the free disable WP robots plugin by Jeff Starr.

This small plugin by Scott Bolinger has a big use case for your Woo store visitors and may even bump up conversions. Or use CheckoutWC with a lot of features for an optimized WooCommerce checkout experience.

Extended WordPress Buzz 🔥

First Release… of 2021, WordPress 5.7 ‘Esperanza’ is now available with a lot of features like one click HTTP to HTTPS, and simpler default colour palette. Personally, I love how the blocks editor has improved (a lot) and it keeps getting better. Also, the plan and process for the next WP 5.8 is already in motion.
Community Vibes… reliving the WordPress community goodness is Michelle Frechette in conversation with Matt Mullenweg. From zero to one million users from 180+ countries, the amazing journey of Essential Addons for Elementor (and an exclusive giveaway).
eCommerce in WP… is getting more attention with WPengine being the latest provider to launch WooCommerce special hosting. While creators using the MemberPress WordPress membership plugin has crossed $1 billion dollars earnings, a great achievement for sure.
Product Updates… Groundhogg CRM for WordPress is preparing for the big 3.0 release end of March 2020 (video) with 2.4 version adding extensive UX/UI fixes along with 30+ other tweaks. While the Ultimate Dashboard 3.2 has added a feature that allows you to add custom menu items to the WordPress admin menu.
